So, the space race was won by The Soviet Union because they were the first nation to get to the Moon with a mission. Of course. USA sent three years later people up there, but I think that they lost this race.

NUCLEAR FUSION PARTICLE ENVIRONMENT

Just entering the microcosm of atom matter where it is able to absorb and emit energy, still having the possibility to obtain energy from the mass of matter which can be found everywhere. Interestingly, E = mc2˛ does not contain any reference to a particular substance, but there is no need, for one gram of air, water or gram per gram of cosmic particles, is also a gram of mass. So our new role is important to release any material amount of energy in mass that surrounds us and which we use or adapt to the devices and equipment built until now

NUCLEAR FUSION AND TRAVEL FOR MARS I

Why this huge energy consumption? To overcome the planet's gravitational field and allow a ship to travel in outer space All bodies around the globe are attracted to Earth, the force of attraction called the gravity and acceleration with which these bodies attracted into the gravitational field is called gravitational acceleration g = 9.81 m/s2˛. Speed needed to escape Earth cosmic ship is 11000 m/s and can be done with an amount of energy of 2,400 tons of fuel Escape speed from Earth's surface is called the second cosmic speed. With this speed of a ship lifts off from Earth's surface and escapes the planet's gravitational field. Gravitational acceleration surface of Mars is g = 3.75 m/s2˛ and have an escape speed of 5100 m/s which is equivalent to a fuel quantity of 1055 tons For a trip to outer space or on Mars was built a Kennedy Space Center, a spaceship and made available energy 2400 tons of fuel - liquid oxygen and to overcome the gravitational field of Mars that has g = 3.75 m/s2˛ and to return to Earth we need a space center, a spaceship and an energy of over 1055 tones of fuel - liquid oxygen

NUCLEAR FUSION AND TRAVEL FOR MARS II

Stephen Hawking's Warning: Abandon Earthâ Or Face Extinction Let's face it: The planet is heating up, Earth's population is expanding at an exponential rate, and the the natural resources vital to our survival are running out faster than we can replace them with sustainable alternatives. So, according to famed theoretical physicist Stephen Hawking, it's time to free ourselves from Mother Earth. "I believe that the long-term future of the human race must be in space," "It will be difficult enough to avoid disaster on planet Earth in the next hundred years, let alone the next thousand, or million. The human race shouldn't have all its eggs in one basket, or on one planet. Let's hope we can avoid dropping the basket until we have spread the load." Solution to travel in outer space with the same ease as we do by car, bus, streetcar, subway, train, boat or plane is: QUANTIC PROPULSED SHIP

Stephen hawking and manoliuval's comments over terraforming planet mars seem too childish heres why. !!
instead of puting all that good effort/lets be honest/- and money, hope, and dreams=(well they are fantisy full) into inhabiting planet why not use all those resorces on fixing plannet earth. the mind set is like watching a littile toddler play with his favorite toy then, watching him get jelouse because he sees a new one someone else has. then to my dissapointment and to his loss he abandons his preciouse favorite toy.To [TRY] to get the new one.

dont tell me lies its not based on survival my young men, its all based on greed. all on a TRY hum.

where is your sense of a responsibility as a intelectual mind!
